Did you think I was done? Ahahahaha no, I have more.

Because chapter 70 of MOMU gave me the very dynamic between them that I missed so much, I just blacked out and started drawing uncontrollably lmao

Also. ALSO. I noticed a while ago that Prowl has the habit of..like…constantly frowning. So. I did a bit of research and made this graph.

In 70 chapters, Prowl frowns rougly 104 times. And the intensity of this gesture is very clearly correlated with the development of his relationship with Jazz, as you can see ahahahahah It might be wrong tho don’t take me seriously I’m not good with graphs

Thinking about how, at the end of the day, at the fatal moment, the sunset of the Republic, it wasn’t Yoda, or Obi-Wan, or even the Chosen One himself standing in the way of Palpatine. It was Mace Windu.

Mace Windu, the inventor of Vaapad and Master of Form VII, the Jedi's strongest duelist, the only person to ever defeat Palpatine in combat. Mace Windu, Master of the Jedi Council and the youngest Master ever appointed to it, the revered leader of the Order. Mace Windu, who forgave even those who tried to kill him, who risked his life over and over again for his troops, who, after 3 years of desperate war, tried to negotiate with battle droids. Mace Windu, who knew the clones were created by the Sith and chose to trust them, who saw every Shatterpoint in the Republic, and loved it still, and fought for it until his last breath, until he was betrayed by Anakin, who he believed in and trusted despite everything.

Mace Windu, High General and hero of the Republic, the embodiment of the Light, the last and greatest champion of the Order, the best Jedi to ever live.

Fun fact: McLaren have scored 1102 points from 2021 to the first half of 2024.

Fun fact: 152 of those are Danny Ric. 264 of those are Oscar Piastri. 686 of those are Lando Norris, that’s well over half.

Fun fact: Lando had a 130 point advantage across ‘21-‘22 and has a 140 point advantage across ‘23-‘24 thus far.

Thank you and goodnight.

Don’t be scared of the dark 🔭💚

listened to pulp musicals and now i’m OBSESSED. can’t wait for episode 4!!!

Not to have opinions on the whole watcher situation but boy do I have opinions because people are defending them? “You can cancel your other subscription!” “Don’t you want the artists to get paid???” “They clearly need the money 🥺🥺🥺”

First of all 6$ a month may not seem like much but it actually is for a lot of people, especially when you consider that not everybody gets paid in dollars and exchange rates are a killer. Yes I’m willing to pay 6$ or more for something like netflix (even though it admittedly sucks) but it’s because they have a ton of stuff I can actually watch! Watcher has like 3-4 shows and puts out around 4 episodes a month so what the hell are we supposed to be paying for! (Also side note even if I wanted to pay them there’s no way in hell I’d give them my credit card info that’s just asking for getting your info leaked)

Yes I want artists to get paid fairly. But no fan asked for “tv show quality”. Most of their shows could be filmed in their basement and it’d make zero difference. Too many spirit is just two guys drinking in one of their parents’ backyard! I dont want to be paying for Steven’s new tesla! I don’t want to pay for a show that’s literally “how expensive can I make this meal!” They don’t have money problems they have spending problems and shouldn’t make it their audience’s responsibility!

So many comments are like “I wish you guys all the best” no crash and burn greedy bastards

There’s something special about “Teen” being so adoring of Agatha and being so excited about the coven forming, even putting up a “Welcome Coven” sign. How he feels safe with her and trusts her right off the bat even though…well, she’s Agatha. It gives me the same feeling of being a young queer person and discovering an older queer person who you look up to so much; a person whose life encapsulates the one you want to live, but maybe didn’t realize was possible. Or even how historically queer men’s culture has been tied to the concept of idols and divas, the ties to drag culture and the love so many gay men have for powerful women. It’s really sweet to see, and I love how thematically and textually queer this show is so far!

I just wanted point out that how helaena was acting does align with being suicidal - suddenly taking on a calm demeanour, suddenly being at peace with the loss of her son, telling her mother that she forgives her which gives closure on her relationship with Alicent when people suddenly go from deep depression to seemingly at peace they very well could be experiencing suicidal ideation or actively planning their suicide and with helaena being a dreamer on the show she likely already knows how her end will play out and that it won’t be long before she is reunited with her child in death while her mother lives on and experiences the loss of her own children so helaena did her the kindness of letting her know she is forgiven and that helaena isn’t in pain anymore, because soon enough she won’t be.

I go off about Catholic/christian religious influencers of all kinds and I do so for many reasons but one of the main ones is just. the feeling they’re selling (and it is a feeling and they’re selling it, even if just for views) it doesn’t feel like that for everyone. That whole simplistic set-up of struggle struggle struggle, breakthrough, clarity, emotional peace, tears streaming down the face. That’s not real. Or at least it’s not real much of the time in MANY cases and even when it is real that isn’t the only part or the most important part of having a relationship with God. It’s probably the least important part, the feeling. and so it fills me with RAGE when the emotional part of religion is sold and packaged and paraded and presented on Instagram as “inspiration”! it distorts the whole reality of a relationship with God and puts a literal and figurative Instagram filter over the whole thing.

speaking my truth with regards to many anons currently in my askbox but how are you going to say that charles’s performance has been unacceptable when he’s had seven front row starts in a row and hasn’t finished outside the top 5 since suzuka last year bffr. if charles had pushed back against team orders and fought and overtaken carlos would’ve gotten p3 due to cooking tyres trying to defend and ferrari would’ve lost three points in the constructors. charles drove flawlessly in the race, he just didn’t pull it together in quali ONE time out of eight due to engineers reworking the car not to his liking - something not entirely in his control.

Saying that Sansa’s rest of the plot is in the Vale is like saying Arya’s rest of of the plot is in Braavos. Hope that helps.

why do you hate Joshua Graham or Honest Hearts so much?

This DLC and character represents a bigger issue with fandom spaces I have but particularly fallout fandom in general.

Fallout tends to tackle a lot of topics controversial and not. The first two games it’s heavy cause they are the most satirical and direct with how anti-war, nationalism and etc… they are. 3 loses this as it’s very clear once you play or learn about all the games that Todd and a bunch of guys at Bethesda just liked the 50s post apocalyptic aesthetic and refuse to actually critique the ideals of the time period like the earlier titles.

New Vegas is the game that really gets back into it a degree it almost seems like it’s taking too much on. There are things done exceedingly well while other things are done horribly wrong . I’ve made posts about it before and plan to make a big series of posts (it’s a lot of writing) but my biggest gripe is with Honest Hearts and all the gross and white savior esque depictions it has of indigenous peoples. The entirety if FNV does not do the injustices faced by indigenous people correctly on any count. My two biggest complaints are with the Khans and the tribes in Zion but I’ll talk about the former on a different post.

Both characters of Daniel and Joshua are the most accurate depiction of white saviors I’ve seen and I hate how the DLC tries to justify and defend them. The DLC treats Joshua like this man who has repented for his past actions when he is just retracing his steps after his cruelty bit him in the ass. He was one of the worst parts of the Legion and it is all but explicitly stated that if you don’t force him to be non-violent he will turn the tribes of Zion into the legion 2.0. The Dead Horses and the Sorrows are horribly infantilized by both Daniel and Joshua who both use them for self serving purposes guised by religious duty. The White Legs are the horrible stereotype of violent and savage indigenous and I personally think a lot of their interlinking with Ulysses, his hair and Ulysses character in general are distasteful and very telling of how BIPOC or POC where involved.

But outside of the game it’s the weird obsession people have with these characters ideologies and trying to make them seem more interesting/philosophical than they are. Tumblr is an echo chamber and many fans of Fallout are not the people on this site. Many people are not educated in the issues these characters convey and how poorly they do or used these characters as a poor introduction for their takes. Contrary to what a lot of people believe in, fallout has a prediomeny white cis male fanbase. More importantly a large portion of the fanbase is white.

You can joke how FNV made you trans or see the numbers on post/fics or diverse headcanons but these are kiddy numbers compared to the millions that consume the franchise and aren’t in those more aware spaces or don’t engage in the spaces the same way someone like me does/has to. Their views shape a lot more than people realize and it’s exhausting to be in a space where people don’t correct the more subtle yet toxic aspects of it but also adopt them into some weird quirky view point on the characters or issues. Some people don’t realize and some people don’t care.

My main issue is just the idolizing of these sort of thing in this fandom space and people try to acts like a game like fallout whose tagline is “War never changes” and has never had a game not revolve around political or militaristic factions issues isn’t that deep or doesn’t relate to real issues. I think it’s mainly caused by how over powered you can become and how you can strong arm your way past these learning moments as majority of people who play this game do play it as a power fantasy where they can do so as they please (which of course, go ahead it’s fun) but never take in parallels or lessons in the story as if it was just another first person shooter.

Also like another personal gripe is Cazadores spawn like hell whenever I’m there and I have not found a mod that works to mod them out so I have to play Indigenous Racism the DLC while getting jumped by giant wasps WHILE helping Mormons. Like I cannot catch a break.
